American College of Cardiology chooses next president, vice president

Two other new members of the ACC’s board of trustees were announced: Bonnie Ky, MD, director of the Penn Center for Quantitative Echocardiography at Penn Medicine, and Lee R. Goldberg, MD, chief of advanced heart failure and cardiac transplant with Penn Medicine.

“The next year will be pivotal for the College as we kick off our 2024-2028 Strategic Plan and celebrate 75 years of serving as the professional home for cardiovascular clinicians around the world,” Nominating Committee Chair and ACC Immediate Past President Edward T.A. Fry, MD, said in a prepared statement. “Fortunately, to deliver on our strategic initiatives, ACC directly depends on the amazing pool of talent across all communities of the College. As we identify our new leadership, I can’t think of a better team of individuals to guide the College and the profession into the future. Together, our future, current, and past leaders will bring vital competencies, perspectives, and experiences that will allow us to truly transform cardiovascular care and improve heart health for all.”

Biga, Kramer and the other new trustees will officially begin their roles following ACC.24 in Atlanta.
